Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Bill

Proceeding contribution from Jim Sheridan (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 15 July 2014. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Bill.

My right hon. Friend seems to be making the case that the lack of attendees in the Chamber suggests that the vast majority of colleagues on both sides of the House support the legislation. If that is the case, why not have a free vote? Then people could vote whatever way they wanted.
